After a 21-year-old Iranian man had Persian script reading "good luck on your journeys" and the first initial of his girlfriend's last name tattooed onto his peen he was left with a permanent semi, according to the most recent Journal of Sexual Medicine. Doctors explain that the traditional handheld needle that was used for the tattoo punctured holes that were too deep "that damaged vessels in the penis, resulting in fistulas, and then a pseudoaneurysm, a pooling of blood outside a vessel wall." The young man tried having shunt procedure performed, but it didn't work to relieve the swelling. He's since rejected any more treatment because he's probably realized that the side effect of the tattoo was that his dick looks bigger all the time. But it probably took him so long to come to that realization due to all the blood draining from his head.
